Description
Photograph of four men using tar to fill in seams on a nearly completed street, [s.d.]. At left, four men stand in a line, tending to the seam beneath them. Two men in the center of the line pour liquids from watering cans, while the man behind them sprinkles something from a bucket he holds. In the lead, a man with a broom can be seen. Behind them, a truck hitched to a tar warmer can be seen.
